                                                                Subjective Summary                

                  The article "I know the truth, so don't bother me with the facts" by Jeffrey Kluger,  says that " humans have been dupes, easily deceived by rumors and flat out lies". The article also mention a study by R. Kelly Garrett and Erik Nisbet from  the Ohio state University, where 750 people were presented with facts of rumors believes about the proposed Islamic cultural center. Fewer than a third of the people were willing to reverse their positions, regardless of the contradictory evidence they were given. Garret and Nisbet conclude that is easy to manipulate people's belief systems with insinuating pictures or inflammatory quotes.
